Right.. another thought.

In Akarra, there was, to begin with, a userlist that listed everyone in the Akarra world. Then, in later versions, you had to manually add it, into a list called Friends if I recall.

...Problem being, not all were friends. Some were people you wanted to keep tabs on, because of one nefarious action or another. Others because they were clan leaders etc.

I request custom userlists, so that you can add people into a list that suits them, eg. HeadMaster into Enemies, or Ripley into Friends etc.

Comments?

True, a separation of that list into subcategories such as friends + enemies would make it so much easier. Especially for those of us who had most of Akarra on the list so you had to search each name 1 by 1 to find who you were looking for

Yes, a search function would be handy indeed.

A good idea but i would personaly like to see another addition to this, and that is that clan leaders get another subsection called diplomacy and other clan leaders are automaticaly put in there, so that its easy to find the leader of clans when the need arrises. Anyway just a though Very Happy

Or make the friends list in alphabetical order.

I'm quite sure it was alphabetical in Akarra.

Well the list wasn't in pure alphabetical order. It was first sorted in clans and then alphabetical, if I remember correctly.

it WAS in alphabetical order, but its still fairly hard when you got half the community added and not sure which alt your friend is on. Tends to be fairly annoying scrolling through every name

It was sorted by:
Clan tag color, then by
Clan name (where no-clanners were at the bottom), then by
Character name.

If anything I would want it changed so you could add people when they are offline! It's a big pain to wait for people to come online, and how the hell are you gonna notice them? Just guess-add their characters? This just doesn't work with people that aren't on too often and with the pending list. Dividing friends into groups is a great idea, I agree.

This is something I've personally wanted to see but never thought of posting about it. Razz

But if you're going to add this, enable an option to have same users set into multiple tabs. Would be even better.
